1) a = b, and a is any non-zero real number.
2) a2 = ab. (Multiply both sides of the original equation by a.)
3) a2 - b2 = ab - b2. (Subtract b2 from both sides of the equation.)
4) (a + b)(a - b) = b(a - b). (Factor each side of the equation.)
5) a + b = b. (Divide each side by a - b.)
6) b + b = b. (Substitute b for a, since a = b.)
7) 2b = b. (Simplify.)
8) 2 = 1. (Divide each side by b.)

That's the oldest fallacy in the book! I learned how to disprove that one in 7th grade.
First of all, if a = b, (a - b) is 0, so statement four is saying 0 = 0.
Then, statement 5 does not compute because you cannot divide by 0, so you cannot divide by (a - b).
Thus the basic laws of mathematics are not violated.
if you could divide something by zero.. would it just disappear?
how would you go about dividing something into zero parts?
and why would you want to?

and you divide it into zero pieces...
where does the toaster go?

What happens when you divide the toaster by 1/2? do you get two toasters?
(1) Alexander the Great was a great general. (2) Great generals are forewarned.
(3) Forewarned is forearmed.
(4) Four is an even number.
(5) Four is certainly an odd number of arms for a man to have.
(6) The only number that is both even and odd is infinity. Therefore, Alexander the Great had an infinite number of arms.

The clowns of death are marching on/ their hideous parade.
Their glaring eyes are filled with hate/ but I am not afraid.
Your sons and daughters, innocent/ lay sleeping in their beds.
They'll catch them while you're not around/ and smash their little heads.

Suppose: distance vs time
code:
d(m)
| /
| /
|/
-------
0 t(s)
Slope = rise/run
in above example slope = (approx) 1m/1sec = 1m/sec
code:
d(m)
| |
| |
| |
-------
0 t(s)
In this graph slope = infinty/0
Therefore (say this is a graph of a car) the car could be everywhere in the universe at the instant in time that the graph shows a vertical line.
In some math you can think of division by zero as infinity:
1/0.1 = 10
1/0.001 = 1000
1/1.0 x 10^-200 = 10^200
therefore the closer you get to dividing by zero the closer you get to infinity.
hahahah sorry for posting math on detnet 
I'll stop now.
